=head1 NAME

Perl::Critic::Policy::Subroutines::ProhibitAmpersandSigils - Don't call functions with a leading ampersand sigil.

=head1 AFFILIATION

This Policy is part of the core L<Perl::Critic|Perl::Critic>
distribution.


=head1 DESCRIPTION

Since Perl 5, the ampersand sigil is completely optional when invoking
subroutines.  It also turns off checking of subroutine prototypes.
It's easily confused with the bitwise 'and' operator.

  @result = &some_function(); # not ok
  @result = some_function();  # ok


=head1 CONFIGURATION

This Policy is not configurable except for the standard options.
